Devil Spotted, finally...

The above line was said by Verbal while referring to 'Keyser Soze' in the movie 'The Usual Suspects'...

A pint of blood...

I participated in a blood donation camp last week, Friday to be precise...

That is when i realized the reason why good deeds are so tiresome...

I have been meaning to do my bit for the noble cause for a very long time, but each time something or the other was conspiring against my act of 'soul cleansing', if it was the unhygienic set-up once, professional pressures on other occasions did their bit...

All those hours in the gym felt worthwhile when I got to know my hypertension was under check and the rate at which my heart was pumping blood was reaching that of an athlete...

Interesting Question...

Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors. Behind one door is a car, the others, goats. You pick a door, say #1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say #3, which has a goat. He says to you: 'Do you want to pick door #2?' Is it to your advantage to switch your choice of doors?

The answer is even more interesting...
